In addition to the cycling challenge offered by this 24-kilometer category one pass, this climb is notable for its beautiful scenery. The 25 hairpin bends create an epic cycling environment, all while passing through delightful heritage sites, such as the Notre-Dame de la Ménour chapel and the village of Moulinet.

The Col de Turini is a mountain pass located in the southern French Alps. It connects Lantosque, in the Vésubie Valley, to Sospel, in the Bévéra Valley. It also provides access to the Paillon Valley and the towns of Escarène and Lucéram. Rising to an altitude of 1,604 meters, it is located near the summit of the Authion Massif. The pass lies between the communes of Moulinet and La Bollène-Vésubie.

A hamlet is located at the pass, where three main roads converge. A fourth road leads to Camp d'Argent, where a ski resort is located, and beyond to the summit of Authion (Pointe des Trois-Communes).
